Thread: pseudo-lucid killing me

A few nights ago, I dreamed about becoming lucid as well. I wasn't aware that I was dreaming, but my dream self certainly was. A few nights before that, I dreamed about being a scientist researching lucid dreams, and entered a lucid dream in that dream too.

Then, last night, I had my first two real lucid dreams since I was a kid.

I think once you start dreaming about lucid dreams, you're getting close. Your mind is now thinking about lucidity on a subconscious level. Now it is probably time to redouble your efforts.

Make certain you are completely aware of your surroundings and thoughts when you do reality checks (You don't want to do an RC in a dream, only to ignore signs that you are dreaming because you have trained yourself to do RCs without thinking about them). Do more RCs. Use auto-suggestion before you sleep to convince yourself that you are going to achieve full lucidity. Et cetera.
